    The accompanying article said "only 26,000" there. I can't imagine what it must've been like to be there on a packed day...

    Great photos. The bit that comes home to me from these pictures and other Wartime shots that I've seen is how little the ground changed from this period until the early 1970's. There was clearly no investment for 25 years or more.

    Didn't they have consortiums (consortia?) in the 1940's?
